Walmart’s offer for the 2020 release of the iPhone SE is one of the cheapest iPhone deals that you’ll ever encounter. The budget version of Apple’s smartphone features a 4.7-inch Retina display, a 12MP main camera, and a 7MP selfie camera. The iPhone SE can last up to 13 hours on a single charge, with storage space of 64GB that’s adequate if you’re the type who regularly deletes unneeded apps and unnecessary photos. The second-generation iPhone SE comes with iOS 13 out of the box, but it can be upgraded to iOS 16, which is the latest version of the mobile operating system. The iPhone SE units that Walmart is selling are locked to Straight Talk, but that may not be a drawback for some shoppers as it’s one of the best prepaid phone plans.

The Dell Inspiron 15 is an affordable but reliable laptop that’s even cheaper with Dell’s ongoing laptop deals. It’s powered by the Intel Pentium Silver N5030 processor, integrated Intel UHD Graphics 605, and 4GB of RAM. These specifications won’t allow the Dell Inspiron 15 to rival the best laptops, but they’re more than enough for everyday functions like browsing social media, creating reports, and watching streaming content. The laptop also comes with a 15.6-inch HD display with Dell’s ComfortView technology that reduces harmful blue light emissions, the ExpressCharge feature that replenishes its battery up to 80% after just 60 minutes of bring plugged in, and Windows 11 Home in S Mode pre-installed in its 128GB SSD.

The 2021 Apple iPad remains a worthwhile purchase from Amazon’s iPad deals even with the arrival of the 2022 Apple iPad. Between the 2022 iPad and 2021 iPad, the latest version offers a more modern design and stronger specifications, but the 9th-generation iPad is still a strong tablet, especially for how much it costs these days. The tablet will be able to boost your productivity with its A13 Bionic chip that’s also found in the iPhone 11, while its 10.2-inch Retina display with True Tone technology, which adjusts brightness and color depending on your surroundings, is great for both working on projects and for watching streaming content. Apple promises up to 10 hours of battery life for the iPad, with compatibility for the first-generation Apple Pencil.
